[TKOW Board]

The show opens up with a shot of Rave sitting in a make-shift office. He?s sitting down in a leather chair his head cradled by his hands. Suddenly, the solitary black phone, which adorns his desk starts to ring. Rave picks it up and answers casually.

Rave: Hello?

A short pause follows as Rave cringes.

Rave: Wait a second, you?re leaving?

?..

Rave: I don?t understand.

?..

Rave: I know but can?t we work something out?

A click is heard before the dial tone takes over. Rave places the phone back on the cradle and before making another call.

Rave: Yeah, Barry, it?s Rave. Just tell the guys on the floor that Slare just quit.

?.

Rave: Didn?t give me a reason. Did say a lot of interesting things about my mother though.

?.

Rave: Yeah, it?s a tough business. Well look, just have it a singles match then. Yep? EKP vs. Nathan?

*Backstage*

We see David Rave in front of a door. He takes a deep breath before knocking.

Voice: Come in?

Rave walks into a dark dressing room where Icarus, TKOW?s World Heavy Weight champion is seated, his title nearby. He walks over and shakes the hand of the fellow Firm member.

Rave: How you feeling?

Icarus: Better, I suppose?

An awkward pause ensues.

Rave: Look, buddy? About last show? If you ever need to talk, you know I?m here for you, ok? I mean, I?ve been through what you?re experiencing. Well, not really. Sort of.. I? Look, if you wanna talk, you know where I am.

Rave turns to leave but Icarus calls his name.

Icarus: David?

Rave: Yeah?

Icarus: Thanks?

Rave nods as he exits the room. In the hall, on his way out he runs right into Jace Mingla who was right outside the door the whole time. He greets Rave with a cold stare.

Mingla(mockingly): How touching? I didn?t know TKOW was such a family? Oh wait, it isn?t. Unless you?re friends with the right people I suppose.

Rave: What?s that supposed to mean?

Mingla: Oh nothing?

Rave: Look Jace.

Mingla: Mr. Mingla.

Rave (sighing): Look? I?m sick of your bitching. You think I?m holding you down? Is that it?

Mingla: It?s as plain as day. I have more talent here than anyone you?ve ever seen.

Rave: Maybe. I can?t disagree with that.

The statement catches Mingla offguard.

Rave: Look, you want to move up the ranks? Impress me tonight. Got it?

Mingla: Sure thing? ?boss?.

Rave nods as he turns to leave before Mingla shouts at him.

Mingla: Oh, and you can forget about Leona! She doesn?t go for pansies?

Rave clenches his fist, but moves on.

Rave: You?re up next?

The High Voltage theme rips through the arena as a series of pyros go off. The fans go wild, holding up signs in a packed Laidly Field. ?Soulfly = 420?, ?Rave 4 Prez?, ?I saw Wildcat in a porn?? ?Icarus, get help? ?Mingla is my nightmare?.

Tito: Folks, welcome to a sold out Laidly Field for High Voltage! Already a crazy night as Slare has JUST quit TKOW!

Bill: Slare quitting TKOW? That?s a shock?

Tito: Well, the show must go on and we?re ready for our triple threat match tonight.

Vega: Dushae will take on Dynamite and the man that everyone is talking about, ?The Iceheart? Jace Mingla.

Bill: I just LOVE Mingla?s style. It?s vicious as hell. Well, Dusty?s already in the ring?

Suddenly, "I Stand Alone" by Godsmack hits and Rick Dushae comes onto the ramp. He stands on the stage and looks left and right before looking forward and sprinting to the ring. Dushae slides in, and immediately grabs a mic.

Tito: What now?

Dushae: Now, you're probably wondering why I'm talking into this microphone right now. So...I guess I'll make it short, sweet, and to the point...Screw all of you, I'm quitting, suckers!

Dushae rolls to the outside and dashes to the back, leaving the fans as well as Dusty Dynamite dazed and confused.

Tito: What the hell? Is there something in the water? First Slare, now Dushae with NO explanation?!

Bill: I?m getting word from the back that TKOW! officials are just as puzzled and that it?s a singles match now.

Vega: Poor, poor, Dusty?

The lights dim as the opening chords to Marilyn Manson's "Personal Jesus" hits. The 'Tron shows what look to be snakes eyes superimposed over the Los Angeles cityscape. The image of the eerie eyes is quickly cut away and replaced with extremely quick shots of Jace ruining somebody's shit with a brutal kick to the face or body, all done to the tune of the opening chords. When the song picks up a fully formed snake appears above the cityscape forms and lunges, the image shatters and it cuts to a series of scenes of Jace in action, intercut with sinister looking red profile shots of him laughing maniacally. By now, the arena is bathed in a strange purplish glow with his symbol (Two snakes locked in combat in the symbol for "infinity") formed in neon lights and leading to the ring. Jace walks to the ring, ignoring the fans. He seems extremely focused and gets in the ring without any frills or wasted movement. He removes his gi top and throws it over the top rope as Dusty stares on. Senior official John Valery calls for the bell as the two men approach the centre of the ring. Dusty raises his arms, beckoning for a ?test of strength?. Mingla looks like he?s going to comply, but at the last second lets go of a stiff kick to Dusty?s knee as the crowd feels the pain.

Bill: What a shot! I love it!

Mingla continues his assault with precision kicks to the lower body of Dynamite who collapses to one knee. Mingla then finishes the job with a side kick right into the chest of Dusty, sending the man to the matt. Mingla wastes no time and immediately grabs the right knee of Dusty and locks in a figure four leg lock. Dusty screams in pain as Mingla wretches on the limb with all his strength.

Tito: This one could be over in a hurry?

Dusty manages to crawl to the rope and grabs onto it. Valery urges Mingla to break the hold but Jace just glares at senior official John Valery with contempt. He doesn?t let go.

Valery: Common, break it or I call this thing over!

Mingla gives one last pull on the leg causing a scream of agony from Dusty before he lets go. He then grabs Dusty by the hair but Dusty hits a desperation slap to Mingla?s face, causing the man to stagger back in shock. Dusty hobbles to his feet, favouring his right knee as Mingla still can?t believe the slap. Mingla counters with a huge chop that sends Dusty staggering back to the turnbukcle.

Crowd: Woooooooooooooo!

Dusty hits a chop of his own.

Crowd: Wooooooooooooooooooo~!

Mingla, slightly agitated reels back nailing Dusting with a monster slap, causing a plethora of blood vessles in Dusty?s chest to pop. Dusty struggles for breath as Mingle hooks him in a bear hug and drags him to the centre of the ring. He doesn?t hold the move long before popping up and releasing with a belly-to-belly suplex. He is on Dusty again, very quickly with a leg-bar, further working over the right knee. Dusty struggles but after what seems like an eternity, he rolls over forcing Mingla to break the hold. Dusty rolls to the outside and crouches down in pain. Mingla follows, looking annoyed.

Bill: Mingla has this one wrapped up! This is in the bag! Like Vega?s virginity on prom, it?s a guarantee!

Vega: Yeah, much like the guarantee of you never getting some tail?

On the outside Dusty nails an unsuspecting Jace Mingla with a quick uppercut. Mingla staggers back as Dusty explodes after him with a clothesline. He connects, sending Jace to the floor. Dusty stomps on Jace, but is clearly favouring the right knee. He grabs Jace, lifts him and nails a quick DDT on the outside. He then lifts up Mingla once more and thrusts him head first into the steep steps, before rolling into the ring, breaking the count. Mingla gets to his feet as a trickle of blood can be seen coming from his nose. He notices and grins, shaking his head.

Tito: uh oh?

Mingla dodges a quick punch as he rolls into the ring and counters with a short-arm clothesline. He then Irish whips Dusty into the corner who inadvertently takes out the referee.

Tito: Senior official John Valery was at the wrong place at the wrong time, Bill?

Mingla quickly takes notice and leaves the ring he gets a chair, slides it back in and a slow grin creeps across his face. He lifts Dusty and nails a monster crucifix power bomb, slamming Dusty right in the centre of the ring. He then grabs the chair and lodges it around Dusty?s right knee.

Tito: Oh no? God no?

Mingla heads to the second rope and leaps off, stomping on the chair, effectively crushing the knee of Dusty Dynamite. He goes for seconds and thirds until Dusty is screaming in pain. Finally, Mingla slides the chair to the outside just as Valery is coming too.

Tito: heinous?

Vega: Brutal?

Bill: Lovely?

Mingla locks in the Liberation (Elevated Inverted Leg-Lace Stretch; aka The Haas of Pain) right in the centre of the ring. Dusty is screaming and has no where to go. A few seconds pass by with Dusty trying to reach the ropes. But his efforts are in vain.

Tito: Come on kid? Live to fight another day?

As if on cue, Dusty taps out from the pain as Valery calls for the bell. Mingla doesn?t break the hold as officials scramble to the ring, trying to rip Mingla off the injured Mega-Star. Finally, Mingla releases the hold on his own volition as "Personal Jesus" blares over the speakers.

Tito: Folks? We?ll be right back?

*Commercial Break*

Voice: Are you tired of the irritation?

Kids voice: Sure am!

Voice: Are you tired of the soreness?

Kids voice: Boy, of course I am!

Alyon Mac emerges on screen, holding a canister as he beams.

Alyon Mac: Then Alyon?s anal soothing cream is just for you. Tried tested and true, it even comes with aloe. And how can you not loooove aloe?

Voice: You can?t. It?s impossible not to love aloe. How can you not love aloe?

Alyon (frustrated): Yes? that?s what I said.

Voice: To order your can of Alyon?s soothing anal cream for 45 easy payments of $1! Yes, that?s only $1! Call 1-800-sooth-my-ass.

Aylon beams as the screen fades.

*Back to the show*

Bill: Boy, we need new sponsors?

Tito: Who needs sponsors when you got singles action! Sadler is ready to go in the ring right now. Let?s cut to the action!

Sadler stands in the ring, waiting for Deems. A minute goes by with nothing. Suddenly from under the ring a figure appears with a baseball bat in hand. Sadler is still unaware. The figure is Deems and he slides into the ring, grinning. With one swing he levels Sadler.

Tito: No!

Bill: Yes!

Crew members flood the ring as Deems takes shots on Sadler. The referee calls for the bell, calling the match a no contest. Deems continues to beat down on Sadler, grinning as he does so. Finally, the crew manages to pull Deems off and usher him to the back as Sadler is laid out cold.

*Commercial break*

Poppi: And we're back from our sponsers.

Jakes: Who was our sponsers again Tito?

Poppi: I'm not going to do it.

Vega: Just do it. That away we can get on with whatever Melvin's got to say.

Poppi: It was our own Dave Rave's book about how to get a woman fast. Happy now?

Jakes: Thrilled. You can pick up that book, too bad it won't work for you....

Poppi: ......Bastard.....

Meanwhile, Melvin enters the ring with his street clothes on. His music fades out as he grabs a mic.

Melvin: Look, I?m only going to say this once, but I am NOT cleared to wrestle tonight and I just won?t jeapordize my career for some fucker on an ego-trip. I?m hereby protesting and will NOT wrestle until I see someone out here. Rave, Icarus, whoever the fuck is in charge. Get out here!

?Breed? by Nirvana plays as Rave comes out in loose fitting black pants, a vintage dress shirt, loose fitting tie and brown sports coat.

Bill: He looks like a damned history professor.

Tito: It?s called ?style?.

Bill: It?s called ?homo?.

Tito: Phil?

Bill: No, ?homo?.

Tito: Oh?

Rave slides into the ring to a massive pop as he grabs a mic.

Rave: Melvin buddy, long time no speak, eh? I see my beat downs still have an effect on you.

Melvin grins as Rave pats him on the back.

Rave: I?m kidding? Look man, I agree with you. I spoke to your doctor earlier and you?re right. You aren?t cleared to wrestle tonight, so I won?t force you to.

Tito: What a man of compassion!

Rave: But I need to be fait here? You gotta promise me you?ll rehab to be ready for Mass Khaos?

Melvin: I?ll do my best?

Soulfly: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold the fuck up, assholes!

Soulfly appears on the Megatron, shirtless and in swimming trunks. Miranda is next to him, under the shade of an umbrella. They appear to be on a private beach somewhere.

Soulfly: First of all Dave, we need to get things straight here.

Bill: uh oh! The golden boy is in trouble.

Soulfly: When I named you co-GM I did so because you were a heartless fucker. Then a few weeks ago you go all ?Saintly? on me? What?s the deal?

Rave: With all due respect, ?Fly, I?m just being fair. Plus, we wouldn?t want a law suit on our hands should Melvin end his career.

Soulfly: You idiot! That?s the idea! End the fuckers career!

The crowd boos heavily.

Soulfly: Look, you may be co-GM for the time being, but I still call the shots. Sorry Dave?

Rave begins to plead Melvin?s case but Soulfly interrupts.

Soulfly: Melvin, you little fucker. Not only will you wrestle tonight, but you?ll wrestle right NOW!

?Down With The Sickness? hits the speakers.

Soulfly: Rave, out of my ring. Go do some paper work or water my stash. Oh, and nice suit?

Soulfly?s image fades off the screen as Phil hits the ramp.

Richard Head: And his opponet, he is the TKOW Custom Champion! Extreme Killer Phill!

Phil makes his way out to the ring for action.

Poppi: Hey Jakes.

Jakes: What?

Poppi: Its time to get down with the sickness.

Poppi gets real close to Jakes's face.

Poppi: Ooh ah ah ah ah!

Jakes turns around and shoves Poppi out of his seat and onto the floor. Meanwhile, in the ring. EKP and Melvin starts to lock up. Phill starts to club away at the neck of Melvin with hard forearm shots.

Jakes: And Phil starts to beat down the injured Melvin.

Vega: He's got to still be hurting from his match against Karnij last week.

Back in the ring, Phil is quick to end this match. He grabs a hold of Melvin and sends him shoulder first into the nearby turnbuckle. He then grabs him again and does this two more times before he signals for the Killer Driver. He sets Melvin up and nails the move with ease. He then gets down into a pin on Melvin.

Richard Head: Here is your winner, Extreme Killer Phill!

Vega: That was fast.

Tito: He beat a guy who wasn?t even cleared to wrestle?

Jakes: Phil's been more focused since he's won the TKOW Custom Championship from fellow DNA member, Dustin Hughes.[/b]

Tito: Whatever? We got word that Jessica is with Ghalleon backstage. Let?s see what the young Mega-Star has to say?

*cut to backstage*

Jessica: Hello, I'm backstage with the challenger for the TKOW World Heavyweight Championship for tonight. How do you feel about your match tonight against Icarus?

Ghalleon looks over at Sammie, who is standing to the right of him. Jessica lifts the mic up to Ghalleon to speak. He then looks right at the cameras as he speaks.

Ghalleon: How long have I been waiting for a chance. I've been here little over a year, I think its high time that I prove to everyone that I deserve that World Heavyweight Championship. Rather the pathetic piles of puke thats called the fans like it or not, they know that I'm the future. They know this, they can see this as clear as a cloudless day. But they're too stubbern, too stupid, too pathetic to realise it. Hell, like Mingla said before, we've got a pathetic excuse for a World Heavyweight Champion. He can't even kill himself. Oh well, Icarus, I hope you're listing real close, you don't have to fail at killing yourself anymore. You're already dying from the inside out because of Wildcat. I'm here to finnish the job and take that belt for myself.

Ghalleon and Sammie then walks off of camera range.[/QUOTE]

Commercial break

The scene opens backstage as Rave is seen striding towards Jace Mingla's locker room. He busts through the door, angrily, only to see Leona in a business suit tending over some papers. He immediatly goes silent as he throat tightens. She looks at him and furrows her brow.

Leona: With all due respect, doors are there for a reason.

Rave: I...ugh... I...

Jace Mingla strides out from the back, towel around his waist, grinning as he sees Rave stumbling for words around Leona.

Jace: Spit it out, David...

Rave faces Mingla and pushes the thought of Leona's long sexy legs out of his mind.

Rave: You have a nerve...

Jace (playing innocent): What? You said "impress me". So I did.

Rave: Fine... You want credit? You want recognition?

Jace: But of course...

Rave: Next week it's you vs. Karnij. The winner gets a shot at Phoenix at New Era.

Jace smiles as Leona is startled but pleased and worried at the same time.

Rave: And the next time you pull a stunt like that, trying to end a man's career, you'll have to answer to me...

Jace: Oh and what are you gonna do? Give me a title shot?

He lets out a laugh.

Jace: Face it, soon I'll be the top dog and ypu'll be answering to me. Now get out.

Rave glares at Mingla but before leaving looks at Leona who seems annoyed by his presence already.

Rave: Leona... A pleasure as always.

Jace (snickering): Oh please...

*Ringside*

Tito: Folks, the cage has been set up, we?re ready to go!

Richard Head: This next match is a tag team tornado tag cage match where both members of a team must exit the ring. Coming to the ring first ? Karnijjjj and Wildcat Lynn Brewster.

The two combatants make their way to the ring as ?Cat Scratch Fever? blares throughout the arena. They enter the ring and look up at the cage that will be lowered from the ceiling.

As the two wait in the ring Seether?s ?Out of My Way? plays as the Tag Team Champions make their way unto the rampway.

Richard Head: And their opponents ... The TKOW! Tag Team Champions ... Eric and Al ... The E&A Connectionnnn

Al has his belt wrapped around his waist and is posing for the caremas with his arms spread open toward the sky. He makes a motion with his hands signalling that the belt is not going anywhere. Eric walks toward the ring with his belt draped over his shoulder. He dusts off the belt then smiles as he rolls into the ring followed by his partner. They both hand their belts over to the ring crew as the cage starts to lower.

Poppi: And the cage has lowered now. The bell has rung and the match is starting up.

The bell rings and the match starts up with Karnij and Al in the ring. They circle around a small bit before locking up. Karnij gets the upper hand and whips Al into the opposet side ring ropes. Al bounces back and charges towards Karnij. He goes for a big boot but Al slides under Karnij's leg and springs back up to his feet quickly. He then executes a Randy Orton like standing dropkick as Karnij turns around.

Poppi: Great drop kick there by Hardcore Al.

Wildcat looks on as Al clubs away at the back of the neck of Karnij. Karnij starts to deliver hard body shots to Al's midsection as Al lifts him back up. Al gets a forearm shot to the forehead of Karnij as he looks up. Chief then grabs ahold of Wildcat when she was distracted by Al's attack on Karnij. Chief then delivers a har belly to belly suplex to Wildcat. He then gets back up and heads over to where Al is. He looks over at Wildcat and shakes his head no. The two then lift Karnij back up but in a burst of power, Karnij lifts Chief up and delivers a powerful sidewalk slam. He then turns around and knocks Al back with powerful shots to the chest. Chief starts to get up and looks over his shoulder to see Wildcat charging at him. As she closes in on Chief, he flips her over the ropes and sends her back first into the steel cage. Wildcat lies on the apron on the outside of the ropes as Chief pulls her back up. She clenches in pain slightly as Chief slams her face into the cage. Wildcat then elbows Chief in the chest twice. She then grabs ahold of Chief and slams his face into the cage three times before she starts to drag him along the cage. She drags him about a foot or two before tring to send his face back into the cage. Chief blocks the shot and elbows Wildcat in the ribs. He then moves her back into the ring and starts to club away with forearm shots.

Jakes: Wildcat turned the tables on Chief for a few minutes. He's bleeding all over his face!

Vega: Wildcat did have the match in her favor for a few minutes there.

Back in the ring, Chief had started to go for an Irish Whip but Wildcat countered the move and sent Chief into the corner near where Karnij was at. Wildcat goes over and starts to lay boots to the midsection of Chief. Karnij looks over and the two starts double teaming Chief.

Vega: Wildcat and Karnij starting their own double team on Chief. Payback from eairlier.

Wildcat then heads over to Al as Karnij starts to open Chief up wider. He starts to lay hard punches in on Chief, busting him open further. He then pulls Chief back a little bit and then rams his face hard down onto the top turnbuckle. Chief wobbles backwards and falls. Karnij then goes back a small bit and delivers a hard leg drop to Chief. He then gets back up and looks down at the bloodied face of Chief. Karnij then goes over a step or two and starts to head up the cage. Al then nails Wildcat in the jaw with a sharp elbow shot. He then ran over to the corner and quickly ran up to the top of the turnbuckle and delivers a hard front spining kick to Karnij's upper ribs. Karnij skids down the cage slightly. He then falls from about half way up the cage down onto the ropes. When his back hits the ropes, he bounces foward fast and slams into the steel cage. Al on the otherhand had landed on the top rope where his waist is. The crowd busts out in chears for the move.

Crowd: Holy Shit! Holy Shit!

Back in the ring, Wildcat goes over to Chief and lifts him back up. But Chief quickly grabs ahold of her head and drops down with his knees bent. He drives her face into his knees, she then staggers backwards a bit as Chief rolls backwards and onto his feet. He then gets into possion and charges at Wildcat for a spear but Wildcat moves out of the way and Chief goes flying head first into the cage. The crowd chears for the move as Wildcat starts to head to the top of the cage. Chief starts to stir as Wildcat makes it about three-fourths of the way to the top. Chief shakes the cage fiercely Wildcat then falls from her possition on the cage down ontop of Chief. Meanwhile Al starts to get back up as Karnij pulls himself up too. Al throws punch and Karnji blocks the shot and counters with a shot of his own. Karnij starts to fire back with lefts and rights before he slams Al's head into the cage twice. He then shoves Al into the steel pole and then nails him with a hard straight kick to the stomach of Al. While this was going on, Wildcat started back up the cage, she's about a foot and a half ahead of Chief who has started back up the cage too. Soon, Wildcat had made it to the top of the cage, she moves one of her legs over the top to start down the other side. As she goes to move the other leg over, Chief grabs ahold of it and gets to the top of the cage with Wildcat. The two starts to trade punches back and forth until Wildcat gets the upperhand. She grabs ahold of one of the cables to lower the cage. She then stands up on the top and pulls Chief up to his feet. Chief grabs ahold of a different cable as Wildcat swings with right hook. Chief dunks and punches her in the ribs twice. She lets go of the cable and Chief props her up against him with her right arm over his right shoulder and behind him. Chief looks out at the crowd as moves his right arm onto Wildcat's left shoulder.

Jakes: He's not going to.....

Poppi: You've got to be shitting me!

Vega: He's got to be crazy to do this!

Poppi: He didn't call his stable the Psychos On Wheels for nothing!

Chief takes a deep breath and lets go of the cable. He then bends his knees slightly and jumps off of the cage with Wildcat. The two land in the middle of the ring motionless from The End from the top of the cage. The two lie motionless in the middle of the ring after bouncing at least three feet in the air.

Poppi: The End! Chief did the End from the top of the cage! The fans are loving this!

Crowd: Holy Shit! Holy Shit!

Vega: The man truely is psycho. I can't belive he just did that.

Chief starts to come around as pushes himself up off of the canvas. Meanwhile Karnij has reached the top of the cage. He sets at the top for a second and catches his breath as Al starts to slowly make his way back up. Karnij looks down at Al. He goes to kick him but Al grabs his foot and pulls himself up to the top where Karnij was at. The two starts to trade punches back and forth before Al blocks a left hook from Karnij. He then pokes him in the eyes. With Karnij blinded, Al grabs ahold of him and tosses him off to the outside.

[b]Vega: Oh my.....

Jakes: Karnij must have bounced two feet on the padding! He's got to be injured!

Meanwhile, Chief starts to get his sences going again and pulls Wildcat back up. He delivers elbow smashes to her face as Al comes down into the ring. He climbs down and gets back into the ring. Chief and Al then pull Wildcat back up and lift her up and then slam her back down in a hard double spine buster. The two then get back up and Chief motions to Al to get ready. As this happens, Karnij starts to pull himself back up. He looks through the cage at the three in the ring. He sees Chief set Wildcat into a slingshot as Al gets ready. Chief sends Wildcat flying into a superkick that was waiting from Al. Karnij sees this and starts to climb back up the cage to get inside to save Wildcat. Chief and Al gets back up and then heads over to the cage. The start to climb up the cage to exit as Karnij climbs back in. Karnij makes it inside as Cheif and Al land on the outside.

Richard Head: Here are your winners, The E.A Connection!


Tito: A hard fought match with the champions coming out on top

Bill: Could you believe that move E&A preformed. Let?s see a replay of that

Seether ?Out of My Way? blares as the crowd is standing in approval for the match. Eric goes to the ring crew and grabs both tag belts handing one to Al as both men start towards the back.

A replay airs of Chief slingshoting Wildcat into a superkick from Al

In the ring Karnij is kneeling over Wildcat who is visible hurt from the slingshot into a superkick. Eric bangs on the cage and waves at the two as both the Tag Team Champions celebrate in the aisle on their way to the locker room for the post-match party.

*Commercial Break*[/QUOTE]

Tito: And we?re back. Co-GM David Rave is in the ring apparently for a special announcment!

Bill: Is he coming out of the closet?

Vega: He?s straight, Bill.

Bill: How do YOU know?

Vega: ?

Rave stands in the middle of the ring as the fans chant his name.

Fans: Rave! Rave! Rave!

Rave: Thanks guys? I?ll make this short and sweet. At New Era, every single match and I mean EVERY single match will feature a stipulation!

The fans pops huge.

Rave: From ladder matches, to hardcore, to? ANYTHING. New Era will feature a mixed bag for everyone!

Tito: What an announcement!

Rave: And the best part is that these stips will be decided randomly, via lottery next week at Mass Khaos!

?Breed? by Nirvana hits as Rave heads to the back.

Tito: A stip for EVERY match? This is gonna be good?

Bill: Almost as good as our main event?

Tito: Oh I can?t wait!

?Co-dependent? by Adema begins to play and Dustin Hughes makes his way down to the ring, wearing a referee?s shirt and forgoing his normal entrance.

Tito: Here comes Dustin Hughes, obviously we?re about ready for our world title match. This should be an interesting spectacle, and a lot of it seems to revolve around Icarus?and doesn?t mean good things for the challenger Ghalleon.

Vega: I?ll admit it, Icarus has some serious back up with Dustin as the ref.

Bill: Getting defensive Vega?.ah?.the sweet smell of commentator bias, I can smell it now?.can you smell it Poppi?

Tito: Well?.I can smell something but it seems to be coming from your direction Bill?

Vega: Haha!

Bill: Oh?we?re funny?

Tito: But seriously folks, Dustin as the ref is not the only factor we need to consider. Just last week we witnessed something truly tragic?Icarus tried to kill himself. Personally, I don?t think it?s a good idea that he compete here tonight.

Bill: Yeah, really! Here?s hoping he doesn?t try to ?necktie? himself during the match or something?

Vega (angry): Oh, go to hell Bill! God, you?re an ass?

?A World So Cold? by Mudvayne hits. The theme is quite appropriate, Icarus doesn?t seem to quite be himself as he comes to the ring and hands his title off to the announcer on the outside. He leans over to say something to Dustin when Ghalleon?s entrance begins.

'Lucia vs Zophar' from Noriyuki Iwadare starts to play as the lights cut to pitch black and smoke starts to flow into the entrance ramp and down to the ring. The smoke glows slightly red as flashes of light scatter though out the smoke giving the image of lighing flashing. The smoke rises up at least two feet off of the ground as Ghalleon starts to rise up from the smoke. He walks slowly down to the ring while on the Khaos Tron the image of Karnij and Ghalleon falling from the cage starts up and then starts to fade out to black. The Khaos Tron then switches over to a blood red sky with red clouds, that plays for about twelve seconds while the image of two eyes starts to peer out from the sky. The left eye is a normal dark blue while the other is red. A black light appears from the red eye and spans across the screen from left to right, while it spans across the screen it starts to show the chateau and a blue tower off behind a mountain while the sun quickly sets behind the same mountains. The Kahos Tron then starts to show clips of Ghalleon's past matches to the chair smash on Karnij. The ring is drapped in purple light as Ghalleon climbs the stairs to the ring. He opens the ropes for Sammy and then gets into the ring himself. He then goes to the center of the ring and rises his arms up into the air slowly. He looks on at the crowd with his eyes rolled back into the back of his head as he slowly raises his hands. The smoke stops coming in, the purple light fades out and the normal lights starts to come back on. He then takes off his shoulder armor, cape & small red head piece and gets ready for the match.

The bell rings and we?re underway. Icarus and Ghalleon circle the ring for a little while. Icarus tries to close in on Ghalleon with a lockup, but Ghalleon side steps him and hiptosses him to the corner.

Bill: Hmmm?.was that concern on Dustin?s face there?

Icarus slinks back against the turnbuckle and picks himself up. Ghalleon corners him and locks up with him?but Dustin forces them apart with a 10 count. Then, quickly, Icarus rushes Ghalleon with a clothesline that drops the challenger! He?s working with a sudden burst of speed and adrenaline, clotheslining Ghalleon down to the mat again and again as the challenger tries to get up. Finally, frustrated, Ghalleon rolls out of the ring, pulling the ring apron and cursing with frustration.

Vega: Good, Icarus! He came to fight afterall!

Finally, Ghalleon slides under the bottom rope and Icarus beckons him to get to his feet. Icarus spears Ghalleon and drives him into the corner, and then starts unleashing with a barrage of blows?and Dustin isn?t doing anything about it!

Tito: Come on! I may not be the biggest Ghalleon fan in the world, but everybody deserves a fair shot in a world title contest!

Bill: Yeah?it?s just too bad this isn?t Candyland Tito?sometimes bad things happen!

Icarus grabs a helping of Ghalleon?s hair and whips him to the mat, proceeding to stomp him. Ghalleon manages to get to his feet and begins to fight back with his fists, finally turning the tide on Icarus. Ghalleon locks Icarus up and delivers with a snap suplex. Ghalleon follows through with a leg drop to the back of Icarus? head, and then follows that up with a Boston Crab, but Icarus is too close to the ropes and grabs them quickly. Ghalleon picks Icarus up and prepares to hit him with the End of the Road, but Icarus elbows out and lashes out with a Dropsault (combo of a dropkick and a moonsault). Ghalleon is leveled and Icarus runs to the ropes, and uses the momentum to hit a stiff elbow drop on Ghalleon. Icarus grabs Ghalleon?s leg, places his boot behind Ghalleon?s knee and then drives his opponent?s knee into the mat with authority. Ghalleon cries out and grabs his knee, but Icarus doesn?t relent. He rolls Ghalleon over and locks in a single leg boston crab on the wounded knee, and Ghalleon is just out of reach of the ropes.

Tito: Icarus is singling out that knee, this could remove the Ragnarok from Ghalleon?s arsenal here.

Ghalleon starts to fight towards the bottom rope?he?s getting closer?and closer?and right before he?s about to reach it Dustin slides out of the ring and pulls the rope away from Ghalleon!

Tito: COME ON! That?s not too obvious?!

Bill: Um, actually it is pretty obvious?

Tito: It?s called sarcasm Bill, I didn?t realize I?d have to spell that much out to you.

Vega (smugly): You?re idiotic arguing aside, I?d just like to note that my boys are working quite well as a team.

Bill: Counting down the days ?til your fired again Vega?counting down the days?

Finally, after working the knee over long enough Icarus breaks the hold himself and Dustin re-enters the ring. Icarus picks Ghalleon up and brings him down with a snap powerbomb. Icarus goes for the pin.

1?

2?NO! Ghalleon kicks out right after the two. Icarus picks Ghalleon up again, but Ghalleon fights back with a couple of shots to the stomach. He locks in a headlock on Icarus and Icarus shoves out, pushing Ghalleon to the ropes. Ghalleon runs back and Icarus swings with a lariat, Ghalleon ducks, stops fast, reaches back and drops Icarus with an inverted head plant (think the Edge O?Matic). Ghalleon reaches over from the seated position and pulls Icarus? legs up for the pin?

1?(SLLLOOOOOW COUNT~!)





2??


Icarus kicks out after the slow count!

Tito: Where?s David Rave?! This is just stupid now!

Ghalleon gets up, nursing his knee, and Icarus chop blocks Ghalleon back down from a kneeling position, striking the same knee! Icarus goes for another submission-a surfboard stretch this time! More pressure is applied to the leg and arms! Icarus maintains the hold as Dustin hits the mat, waiting for Ghalleon to tap. But Ghalleon won?t give up!

Bill: He?s gotta tap sooner or later!

Ghalleon raises his hand?is he going to tap?! No, he?s still not tapping! Finally, after maintaining the hold for almost a solid minute Icarus lets go with frustration. He drops another elbow on Ghalleon. Ghalleon slowly rolls out of the ring and out of danger, but Icarus follows him out and throws him into the steel ring steps. The steps clatter into a mass of gray metal and man as Ghalleon takes a big fall. It looks like he cut his arm open on the way down, and it?s bleeding a good deal. Icarus picks up the ring steps with a vengeful look in his eye.

Tito: Dustin, you might want to stop this!

In a flash, Ghalleon counters with a low blow!! Icarus drops the steel steps. Ghalleon locks Icarus up and drills him with a DDT on the outside. Ghalleon goes back in the ring and notices Dustin. Ghalleon gets in his face, yelling about the slow count earlier. In a rage, Ghalleon palms Dustin?s face and shoves him down. Dustin scrambles to his feet and shoves Ghalleon?and then Ghalleon shoves him back! Unbeknownst to Ghalleon, Icarus has gotten back in the ring and he sneaks up on Ghalleon with a running bulldog! Icarus goes for the pin again!

1,2?NO! Ghalleon kicks out after another very fast 3 count!!

Icarus pulls Ghalleon up and tries to suplex him. Ghalleon wraps his leg around Icarus? leg to block it. He then reverses by picking Icarus up for what looks like a suplex, but instead he hangs Icarus out to dry on the top rope and then dropkicks Icarus in the back of the head! Icarus falls off the ropes, but in the process his wrist gets caught up in the ropes! Icarus is completely at Ghalleon?s mercy. Dustin tries to intervene, but Ghalleon shoves Dustin out of the way and starts to beat on Icarus viciously as the champ is stuck in the ropes.

Dustin is visibly enraged now. He shouts at Ghalleon to stop or else he?s disqualified.

Tito: Ghalleon could lose his chance at the title if he doesn?t stop here.

Ghalleon relents and allows Dustin to free Icarus, but as soon as Icarus is free Ghalleon lunges in and puts the pressure to Icarus with the Mental Crush?but for reasons unknown Dustin makes Ghalleon break the hold! Ghalleon gets nose to nose with Dustin and finally they come to blows! Ghalleon gets the upper hand and hits the Final Journey on Dustin!

Bill: Well, this match has finally gone straight to hell!

Vega: Wait, what?s Ghalleon doing, he?s getting a chair!!

Ghalleon pulls a chair out from under the ring and looks like he?s going to do some serious damage to Icarus with it, but right as he?s about to strike Icarus with it, Dustin gets to his feet, grabs the chair from Ghalleon and domes him with it!

Bill: Damn, what a clang!!

Icarus struggles to his feet in the corner, smiling as Dustin puts the hurt on Ghalleon with the chair. Dustin glances over at Icarus and smiles back?.

?.AND THEN DUSTIN DRILLS ICARUS IN THE CORNER WITH THE CHAIR!

Crowd: *Stunned gasp*

Vega: THAT SON OF A BITCH!!

Dustin watches Icarus go down in a heap, busted open by the chair. Icarus claws his way towards Dustin, his eyes pleading and confused. Dustin brings the chair up high again and crashing down on Icarus? back! Icarus stays down and the crowd boos heavily.

Dustin throws the chair out of the ring and rolls out to grab the world title. He gets back in the ring and throws the title over his shoulder, planting his foot squarely on his own brother?s bleeding head!

Bill: Power corrupts all kids! What a fairytale ending!

Tito: Fairytale ending my ass?yet another brother turns on brother in the quest for the gold!! You know?I?m not even shocked by this kind of behavior anymore!!! How revolting?

Bill: Well, join us next week fans for another show that is hopefully free of Tito?s preaching!

Vega:?.(still yelling about the screwjob)?
